I'm in a weird predicament.... My 3 of my Leghorn eggs, which are pretty big, are literally stuck in the holes they sit in. I don't know how to get them out. It's a plastic auto turner they are stuck in. So confusetd...
try taking the turner out and give the eggs and tray plastic a cool down for about 5 minutes and then see if they come out. and look for seepers


goood luck, I am out now....

Thank you, I owe a lot of it to BYC, chicken support group haha.
Things can get better, I am lucky enough and blessed enough to be able to take them to a vet and if I have to cull them it will be an emotional hardship.

I am lucky in that my Siam eggs aren't here and I have time to formulate a plan of action.

My 2 cents..
Try not to worry too much yet. Please let us know what the vet finds. There are so many ways chickens get sick. In the transport boxes, there are biological filters over the holes. These are just to help keep airborne bacteria from coming out of the box while in transit. Shipping does stress and makes them more prone to things they have already been exposed to and also all the pathogens of a new place that they may not have any immunity to. Keep in mind that NPIP gives a certain amount of false security. It's only a yearly test for 3 types of salmonella including pullorum and 3 types of Mycoplasma and now avian influenza. They could still have lots of other diseases going on as well as things like coccidia or parasites....
Not trying to make things sound worse...Just saying, see what the vet says, keep the seller in the loop, and use some quarantine practice until things are normal...

What kind of thermometer/hydro do to recommend getting? One with or without a probe. I am thinking about getting that thermometer that has the ceramic egg on the probe

I had the same thing happen. Mine leaked and glued themselves to the turner. Don't take my word for it though. Wait for other responses.

Thank you. I am trying to keep calm, I always seem to jump to worst case scenarios first.
